Maybe it's because I'm a Londoner

I have a 18:04 train to catch from London Euston

17:00 sit down with Alfie and Josh in the Giraffe restaurant in the Brunswick. A farewell meal.
17:30 "Euston is only 2 minutes walk from here" says Josh (the local)
17:45 "We better ask for the bill"
17:50 We leave the restaurant, Josh leads the way
17:55 We arrive at Kings Cross St Pancras. I wont repeat what Alfie and I said to Josh.
17:59 Why wont the traffic lights turn red to that I can cross the road. I can see the station entrance
18:03 flying down platform 4, I see a Virgin train it must be the one.

18:04 The realisation that it wasn't

Another night in London town? The place is growing on me. I am starting to feel at home.
